A big hello to all you OHKOers out there. This is Pikkdogs here with his sidekick Pedro, here to give you an update on my Mew Prime deck.

The first post-catcher decklist I gave you was a Mew Prime deck. It relied on Vileplume to lock trainers, Pidgeot to stall, and Jumpluff to attack (through Mew Prime of course). Pedro, tell the nice people how to view the previous article.

If you were lucky enough to miss the last article about Mew Prime, and you for soe reason want to change your luck, you can view it here.

Thank You Pedro. Since the last article my mind has changed about Mew Prime a couple times. When I first tested it I thought it was one of the best decks in the post catcher era. Than I did more testing, built other decks, and played matches against other people. The final straw with my Mew deck was when Ed’s deck took apart my Mew deck.

If Ed beats you that bad, it indeed is a bad sign.

I agree Pedro. So after that match I decided to try to find a different deck. I tried a couple decks but nothing …

At this year’s nationals, I had my best nationals finish. I made Top 64, but it was bittersweet. While I had done fairly well, I still made the same mistakes in deck building and deck choice which had led to my poor results in previous years. I played a build of a deck which was largely untested and that I was fairly unfamiliar with. While the list I played was by no means bad, it did suffer from being teched improperly. In addition, there were logical flaws with the trainer engine and how it synched with the rest of the deck.

This article has two main points. First, it will provide some insight into the Mew/Muk Jumpluff/Vileplume archetype. Second, it will showcase some of my thoughts about the deckbuiling process highlighting what I did wrong with this deck. Right now. I’m going to share the list I played and explain my reasoning behind my choices. Also, let me state that this list is not just my own. Emmanuel Divens is also a co-creator of this build and a lot of the ideas behind this list can be attributed to him.
